摘要: The Doppler spread parameterization is used to represent the effects of a background spectrum non-orographic gravity waves in Canadian Middle Atmosphere Model. Two versions are used, differing only range vertical wave number part input spectrum. Results from seasonal simulations made with combinations and orographic drag parameterizations discussed compared those basic version model which contains an but no explicit for waves. obtained indicate that brings about improvements zonal mean structure middle atmosphere including closing mesospheric jets reversal winds above mesopause high latitudes.
